PROIiIlLIGION.

DO We Need Prohibition ?" is the
question propounded in The Forum for
April, by Rev. John Snyder of st.
Louis. Mr.. Snyder is leading clergy.
man of that city, and has given the
subject long and thoughtful attention.
The proposition with which he starts
out in this; "Are all those social and
political forces which may be classified
as anti'temperance so strong, so aggrcs-
sive and so dangerous in this country
that they demand for their control or
extirpation special mode of legal
treatment which is out of harmony
with the temper and spirit Of American
jurisprudenceg"
The conclusion at which he arrives
Is that the cause of temperance has
grown as rapidly as any other social
reform in the United States, and he
supports his position by retrospective
view OF the temperance agitation, be.
ginning with the time when the
churches felt their way in this "deli.
cate and difficult movement only by
"slow and painful steps, and when
'the great Methodist communion,
which may now be called the Napo
leonic guard of temperance, would not
forbid dram'selling by its preachers!"
What wonderful change has been
wrought, not only in ecclesiastical
opinion, but in public sentiment gen.
orally, since the time, in 1913, when the
Methodist Church voted down this res.
olution; "Resolved, that no stationed
or local preacher shall retail spirituous
or malt liquors without forfclting his
ministerial character among us.
Mr.. Snyder makes no attempt to be.
little the awful evils of intemperance.
On the contrary, he is fully aware of
them. He has had peculiar opportu.
mites for observing them in their most
distressing and abhorrent phases.
"They are sufficiently enormous" he
says, ito command for their extirpa-
tion the utmost energy and wisdom of
every lover of his country and his
kind" Yet the progress of temper.
ance in the future, judged by the ex.
perience of the past half century, will
lie such, In his opinion, as to gradually
work out the salvation of the country
from the despotism of the "rum
power" lie cannot believe that the
drink habit" Is so far outstripplng
the wholesome forces of Christian
civilization that these forces must be
practically abandoned for legal
measure which seeks to curb the license
of the vicious by destroying the ra =
iional liberty of the vlrtuous, and
